[HTC Sensation] vwbest16:
is a rumor Rom Official HTC test 2.3.4?
[HTC Sensation] umd:
So will you guys be using it for base of your ROMs?
[HTC Sensation] ~~Tito~~:
Nice, I am glad I picked the Z710e, if I go back to stock, I will be just fine. I cant wait for this to be turned into a base and used in all the sense roms.

[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
lol im kind of diggin the chinese boot animation, and i think i may stick with this rom for a while. i missed 2.3.4 that i had on the g2x, and now i have it with sense 3.0 , im a happy customer :)
[HTC Sensation] morganpants:
seem stable? and authentic from htc?
[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
it feels as stable as running any other rom or even stock, but much faster. i dont know if its official from HTC , but i think its damn good. :D im sticking with it for a while
[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
it definitely feels authentic from HTC
[HTC Sensation] morganpants:
good because i'm installing :)
[HTC Sensation] bobsbbq:
I'm trying it out and it seems to be pretty good so far
[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
Good I'm sure you'll like it :-) , I'm also noticing I have more free memory in task killer.things are running very smoothly.

[HTC Sensation] ozhone:
Any benchmark to compare with the stock one?
[HTC Sensation] ~~Tito~~:
Are there any language issues?
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
Nope, non that I saw (everything was in English). Only thing missing from the Rom of importance is the status bar :eek:
[HTC Sensation] umd:
I've tried InsertCoin's 2.3.4 beta. Guys, you're not gonna believe how smooth Sense is. It's like Launcher Pro, ADW.

CF-Bench and Quadrant are even lower. I've got (8639, 2404, 4898) CF-Bench and 1450 Qudrant.
[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
As much as I like this ROM and how fast it is, especially after flashing the non sense script over it, I don't think it can be a daily driver ,for one reason, the whole time testing it,I just launched the browser and what you type in the Google search may be in English,but nothing else is. Everyhing else on the internet is in Chinese . That's really weird LOL this sucks because i thought I had found the best set up for myself :'( also the YouTube app is 50/50 English and Chinese
[HTC Sensation] Rouz.:
This ROM is great, ... Fast, smooth and very clean. All the unnecessary stuff has been removed. I will stick with this rom for a while

Did anyone notice that the updated htc messaging client has a back up and restore feature now?

Edit: everything is in english, except the boot screen and a chinese app which can be removed by titanium backup or any other method.
[HTC Sensation] forelli:

Does it fix the browser rotation bug?

Make sure you have auto-rotate OFF

Go onto the stock browser, menu, windows. Then turn the phone round. Does it rotate?

It rotates on the stock rom and it's really annoying! Even when autorotate is off!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pauloxzak:
Ok, so as usual I'm a noob in android and got the GS2 as my first. :D

So I read a lot of stuff in this forum with the search function and came to learn about odin, pit files, modem, csc, pda and some other stuff, and I feel that I can soon do my rooting process however there are some things that I still do not understand and a little help would be appreciated :)

1 - So, there are kernels and there are ROMs, from what I understood ROM = firmware and that contains a whole new system, so does flashing a ROM also flashes a MODEM file?

2 - I'm from Brazil and so is my GS2, therefore I believe my MODEM file has configs to my country, so if I flash a ROM that'll screw my MODEM file too?

3 - how can I get a right MODEM file?

4 - I read about the ROM kitchen, and from my understanding you can create your own ROM, is there something available for GS2 too?

5 - Are there good ROMs for GS2 already? Or just kernels to get root?

6 - Is Odin used just in the rooting process of the S series?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pauloxzak:
Thanks for the info!

so, should I add the modem and csc files compatible with my country every time I flash a new rom?

Also, I read about killing all Kies processes to start with the rooting, that refers to the kies in the phone os the kies in pc?

Does installing Kies in pc already gives me all drivers? (I discovered just now that there are a Kies for PC :o)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NielDK:
Posted here, since I believe this is a general and not device specific issue.

So, I have set up a VPN server on OSX Lion Server edition.

It is using l2tp with preshared key and username/password for login.

i(beep) works fine and connects. Laptop works fine and can connect.

But...

1. When Iam on local network (same IP segment) I can connect using Android native l2tp VPN connection setup with PSK and user/pass.

2. When I try to connect from external (3G or other WiFi net) I am unable to connect.

3. When I enabe native tether on Android device, and connect i(beep) to the Android AP, I still am able to connect from i(beep).

These three steps tells me it is not a carrier issue, and possibly an Android issue.

Did anyone experience this (and even better.....did you find a solution)?

Kinda like the l2tp connection for security, and also Lion natively does not supply pptp connection.

/Niel
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acameron22:
I am trying to do the same thing, I havent got the VPN to function yet though but I think its a router issue among other things. I bought a domain name and I am using that with dyndns to help simplify the ip change issues... I am getting a new router to test here next week so hopefully I'll have a better idea.

However now I am worried I'll run into the same issue as you!! lol... Its been a while since you posted, have you found a solution yet?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NielDK:
No. Didn't find a solution, but you might be correct in assuming its a router issue. Have a Netgear myself, and those have had quite a few issues.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acameron22:
I ended up getting a new Airport and it has pretty cool setup integration with the Server / Airport Utility, however I still cannot connect with the VPN connection.

My initial reason to set this up was to use PLEX... AND this actually works very well if I setup my connection through the PLEX connection settings.. but I still can't get it to work with the Android VPN setup.... (tested 3G and WiFi)

..also I cannot get the VPN to work with a Windows PC... tested a Mac (hackintosh) and it worked instantly...

so I think its a Mac thing maybe... Since PLEX is working... I am happy but would still like to get the VPN connection working properly. I suspect I'll need to call Apple about it though :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flyinace2000:
I am also have a similar issue.

OSX Server running 10.6.8

L2TP VPN and PPTP services running

My iPhone and laptop can connect just fine. My HTC One X and HP Touchpad (CM9) can not. Both say the address can not be resolved. The server is sitting in the DMZ and if I enable the web server both devices can resolve to the default welcome page just fine.

1. It isn't a DNS issues since they can connect via the web

2. It isn't a port issue since other clients can connect

Is there some dumb setting i am missing in the VPN setup?

Thanks

Will

Hey guys.. I got PPTP to work to OSX Lion Server by making sure PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec forwarding were enabled through my router.

Also, make sure to check the VPN logs in /var/log/ppp/vpnd.log to see why it's not connecting..

If you are referring to the actual Settings application, i dont believe so. I mean you could push it via adb or flash it. But I'm SURE that it would NOT work. Its not made for Sense or that ROM in general.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sbuv1715:
Hi guys,

So i went to Romkitchen.org, and cooked a rom. now this is my first rom so i have never flashed one before. Now whats happening is that when i boot up my phone, everything seems fine. although there is a pixelated screen before the splash pops up. Now thats not the problem, the problem is that i cant do anything on my phone. whenever my phone is turned on, i can use it for like 5-6 seconds, and then the splash screen pops up again. And this keeps looping over and over again. i tried using that small window of time to factory reset, since it didnt reset when i flashed the rom for some reason. except when i try to reset it, the phone reboots. except it keeps on the AT&T screen. Same thing happens when i try to flash to rom with ROMmanager. Please help! im 13 so i cant afford a new phone, since i got this one with a contract. Oh by the way, My phone is the Samsung Captivate.
[HTC Sensation] SlyTuk:
Hi,

Phone is being exchanged due to dust problem. I had unfortunatley s-offed before problem arose. Still stock ROM though.

There doesn't seem to be a tmobile UK ruu about so i can't follow the guides that are around.

Any ideas?

I really need to sort ASAP as courier is collecting first thing.

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
I don't believe an S-On method has been released yet...
[HTC Sensation] armoguy94:
This doesn't help answer your question (as there's no s-on method yet), but I can't help but wonder why you would request an exchange when your device was S-OFFed and you had no clue if it was even possible to revert that?
[HTC Sensation] kylez64:
kinda in the same boat myself

I'm pretty sure your good with ship s-off and stock ROM.

Some people got s-off devices, how would they know if it came like that?

I would flash the RUU for your phone just in case.

[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Hi i'd like to know how battery compares on the DS.

I hear many ppl say that on custom ROMs the battery is better, but by what margin?

There is a person saying he had his DS approxiametly in standby for 200hrs (stock)

then with a custom ROM 400hrs...

is that an accurate prediction... do the custom ROMs increase battery by that large margin?

i would have thought that having all the newer sense 3.0 , overclocked ROMs etc, would make the phones battery life worse than stock, but it seems not so....

Anyone can share their expierences please?
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
i dont know about stand by but if u ask about usage stock rom battery life sux.I'm on cm7 (right now) and must say that this rom is the best one for battery life...tried miui,lbc,virtuous and now cm7 so far and in cm7 is no drain at all...7-9mA on idle ..all roms drain fast if u use wifi ..if u really use ur phone whatever u use stock or custom rom u will must charge every day thats for sure :)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
in some lines, when screen off i get use of:

Stock: 14-15ma

Custom 6-8ma

Meaning that custom rom uses half of current... means better battery life
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
yeah just like that
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
on standby you can see a huge increase in battery life if you use a custom ROM

but when you are actually using the device the battery life isn't changed that much as the display causes most of the battery drain & so reduction in battery consumption of most other processes does not affect the battery life much,but it definitely is a lot better

& also most custom ROMs underclock the device when the device is sleeping so that also helps the battery life

AOSP roms had battery drain issues,but the devs are working on it & it should be fixed soon(im not sure if its fixed yet)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Thanks everyone for your input!

Will be considering rooting my phone and installing a custom ROM , once i'm fully settled in with it :)
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
would just agree with what @kartkk said above.

Would also say that you are correct to delay, as there are a decent number of guides and weeks worth of reading material here in the forum to keep you busy and help you along the way.plus lots of us here willing to answer any questions you may have as you should be fairly confident what you are up to before you start flashing.
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
yeah,i agree dont root your device for the first week or two till you can get all the info about rooting & also get to know the problems in stock so that you can choose the best custom ROM for you
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 4123551:
with Virtuous Unity my device lasts two days instead of one day (with stock rom):p

[HTC Desire S] poppy8x:
vote for custom rom :) my battery life longer 1 day with wifi and gsm
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
I haven't noticed a difference really, but then again I am over clocking now by about 400Mhz. Custom roms are just better all round.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Do custom roms without HTC sense last longer?
[HTC Desire S] bilalovic1234:
what is the best coustom rom for battery life
[HTC Desire S] Wuhlifant:
interesting question, since sense is quite often blamed for its exessive battery drain.
[HTC Desire S] sayeed91:
Miui rom 1.7.29 by superkid right now with the stock kerel is amazing I can easily get over 2 days of moderate to heavy usage
[HTC Desire S] poppy8x:
me too. i always run under clock 825Mhz or 768Mhz :P but battery drain faster when i active sip voip (all rom) :(
[HTC Desire S] zas666:
I tested Virtuous Unity 1.27 -> 1.31 and LBC MOD v0.5.2->v0.5.4 (my current one), and clearly battery lasts longer with such rom.

In sleep mode it makes a lot of difference, but awaken the phone screen is still a battery eater.
[HTC Desire S] Par Excellence:
I'm on MIUI and is better then stock
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:

[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yep, I do it for all my devices! When I first got my desire s , I charged it till the battery was full. Then drained it till battery was 10% then charged it full again, and so forth. Right now, I'm on my 4th charge.. can I still expect battery to get better?
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
Normaly each time you load there will be a little aprovement, i had my for a month , with full batt (and everything on , wifi, bt, gmail , facebook sync ...) it lastest only a day ,now thanx to AlpharevX and Revolutionary :D i am on Virtuous Unity 1.29 i've got almost 2 days now !!!!:)
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
Try virtuous unity = even better !! :p
[HTC Desire S] choiia:
+1 for that. virtuous was always the best rom for me regarding battery life.
[HTC Desire S] Jan_Joris:
Yes, without a doubt.

I used LBC Mod & Virtuous Unity and they both add a lot more life to the battery.

I wouldn't doubt any longer and get some of that action if you are into Sense.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Thanks.. in the roms do you all use stock kernels, or custom kernels?
[HTC Desire S] zas666:
I'm using tiamat kernel with cm7 and achieve a sleep consumption around 9-11mA never went that low with stock kernel
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm on lbc with unity kernel and get 5-6mA in idle
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Thanks! I'm still on stock ROM and kernel. Last night I switched my phone off (hibernate, fast boot) I had 74%. Now, 8hrs later I switched it on, I have 71% battery. Is that drainage normal for the phone in hibernate mode?

Cheers!
[HTC Desire S] harshs23:
Don't know what I've done wrong, did a full wipe and ran the custom flash before installing LBC MOD, idle reading is about 40-45 mA and in use it shoots up to 90-190 mA :confused:
[HTC Desire S] Jan_Joris:
I have used the kernels they advised for that ROM, meaning i always waited until they had the battery drain out of the way and just installed the ROM with the right kernel included.
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
Using LBC with stock kernel. I got around 10mA idling.

Had to use stock since unity causes my phone to randomly shutdown whenever it's in my pocket. Oddly.
[HTC Desire S] CatcherInRye:
Strange thing again. I deleted the battery monitor widget . Then the custom widget shows 14mA when I did nothing. Frustrated. Gloomy.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
That isn't strange, assuming that you meant current widget, it normally shows between 10mA to 14mA in idle

Battery monitor widget shows lower numbers about half those down of 7mA

Which is why we both created threads on the subject

hey superkid, i just bought my self a desireS, and i am actuall loving the stock rom, anyhow i am very new to android and love to tweak things to my desire. Do you have any tutorial on how to root it...i would really appreciate any help, thank you=)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Hey, sorry if this seems like a stupid question... But do kernels also improve the battery life?

I s-offed my phone yesterday, and tried lbc mod and virtuos unity. Unfortunately, I didn't think they suit me, so I went back to the stock pre-rooted ROM.

I flashed Unity Kernel, and I installed SetCPU, and configured it to 245-368mhz (sleep mode, conservatice)

And normal use 1024mhz max, 245mhz min, ondemand)

I installed everything back to the phone and set it up, and my battery has been great!

So what I would like to know is , what has improved my battery life... The new kernel, or setcpu? Or both?

What does a kernel also do?

Still abit of a noob with all this stuff ...

Cheers!
[HTC Desire S] :
Yes a custom kernel will help with battery life and is most likely the reason for your improvements. One note though, if using the 'Smartass' governor in Setcpu, you do not need a screen off profile, as Smartass will do that automatically. A Kernel will affect your wifi performance, camera, downloads, rom smoothness (fps), video performance, audio, sdcard etc.

Try to calibrate your battery

It really works!

Instructions:

1. Turn your phone on and charge it for 8 hours our more

2. Deplug charger turn your phone off and charger it for 1 hour

3. Deplug charger and turn your phone on

4. Wait 2 minutes and turn your phone off and charge it for 1 hour

5. Deplug charger and turn your phone on. The battery life should be much better now :D

It really worked for me!
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Thanks for that! Will give it a try soon!
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
Yeah I would highly recommend doing a battery calibration, although the steps I take are.

1. Charge your phone for 8 hours.

2. Unplug the charger and switch your phone off.

3. Plug the charger in with your phone off, wait until the notification led goes green.

4. Power the phone on and charge until the led goes green again.

5. Restart into recovery and wipe the battery stats.

The battery life of the custom roms I reckon are a lot better than the stock. Even with the HTC kernel its still really good.

I'm running LBC with HTC stock kernel and I reckon I could easily get 2 days with moderate to heavy usage.
